 Strange thing, all sites were automatically marked as archived after
 automatic upgrade to 3.8.3. Maybe it is not related, but it was the last
 thing which is time-related to this problem.

 I checked database tables and all sites had archived = 1 in wp_blogs, but
 last_update column was not changed. So, it suggests, that it was not done
 by administrator. Administrator can archive primary site? Then it is not
 possible to access administration...

 I repaired it by setting 0 for all sites, but I am not sure, how could it
 happen? Do you have any ideas? There are no plugins which could cause it.
 I searched code and did not find any clue. Also hosting company is used
 for many other Multisite installations without problems.

 There are also some posts from different forums (usually somehow related
 to WordPress upgrade), but they are only talking about fixing problem and
 not about finding why...

 Not sure, if it is some kind of bug, incompatibility or security hole...
